Fixes #10925. ## Problem `splitIntoTokensWithAnsi()` attaches pending escape codes to the next visible character. The code that closes a styled word therefore lands on the following space: `**commodo** consequat` tokenizes as `\x1b[1mcommodo`, `\x1b[22m `, `consequat`. `wrapSingleLine()` detected whitespace with `token.trim() === ""`, which is false for `"\x1b[22m "`. When the styled word ended exactly at the wrap width, that space was treated as a word and moved to the next line: ``` before: ["aaaa \x1b[1mbold", "\x1b[1m\x1b[22m next", "word"] (width 9) after: ["aaaa \x1b[1mbold\x1b[22m", "next word"] ``` Because the closing code moved to the next line, the style also stayed open into the right padding of the wrapped line. Separately, `getLineEndReset()` closed only underline at line end, so strikethrough that spans a wrap continued into the padding. ## Fix - Detect whitespace tokens after stripping escape codes. - When a whitespace token is dropped at a wrap, append its escape codes to the wrapped line and update the tracker, so the style closes there and is not re-opened on the next line. - Close strikethrough (`\x1b[29m`) at line end, like underline. `getActiveCodes()` re-opens it on the next line. Background is unaffected. - Whitespace wider than an empty line that carries codes (e.g. background spaces followed by a trailing reset) keeps only the codes. Without this, treating it as whitespace skipped the long-token path, and the trailing reset blocked the final `trimEnd()`, leaving a line wider than `width`. - When a long word follows, the line before it is now trimmed before the line-end reset is added. Otherwise the reset (now also emitted for strikethrough) blocks the final `trimEnd()` and leaves trailing spaces. ## Tests - `wrap-ansi.test.ts`: boundary closing code, dropped space with a color reset, strikethrough reset and restore across a wrap, strikethrough reset with background preserved. - `markdown.test.ts`: padded Markdown with a background at an exact boundary for bold and strikethrough. - The new tests fail without the fix. With the old code, rendering the issue text through `UserMessageComponent` (dark theme, padding 1) at widths 40-120 produced 5 bad lines at width 78. With the fix it produces none. - Fuzzing over 1.2M random styled inputs with SGR and OSC 8 codes found no line wider than `width`, and no case where the old wrapper laid out text the same as the unstyled input but the new one does not. - Benchmark (`wrapTextWithAnsi`, width 77, about 5-18k chars, median of 6 processes) against `main`: plain -5%, light styling -0.5%, heavy styling +1%, long strikethrough +0%, all within noise. The whitespace check scans character codes and stops at the first visible text instead of allocating a stripped copy. - `npm run check` passes. All `packages/tui` tests pass. `./test.sh` shows no new failures; the remaining failures are environment-specific: the clipboard tests also fail on `main` here, and the durable, env (ssh), and chord failures are in packages that do not depend on `pi-tui`. |

Pi
Pi is a minimal, extensible agent harness that you can make your own.
Adapt Pi to your workflows, not the other way around. Customize Pi with extensions, skills, prompt templates, and themes. Bundle them as Pi packages and share via npm or git.
Pi ships with powerful defaults but skips features like sub-agents and plan mode. Ask Pi to build what you want, or install a package that does it your way.
Use Pi interactively, automate it in print or JSON mode, control it over RPC, or build apps with the Pi TypeScript SDK. See OpenClaw for a real-world integration.
Getting started
Install the command-line interface:
curl -fsSL https://pi.dev/install.sh | sh
On Windows:
powershell -c "irm https://pi.dev/install.ps1 | iex"
The installer pins all dependencies and updates Pi with pi update. Alternatively, install directly with npm, which does not pin transitive dependencies:
npm install -g --ignore-scripts @earendil-works/pi-coding-agent
Pi requires Node.js 22.19 or newer. The macOS, Linux, and Windows installers can install it if needed. Pi does not require dependency lifecycle scripts for a normal npm installation.
Start Pi in the directory where you want it to work:
cd /path/to/project
pi
For a built-in AI provider, run /login inside Pi to connect a subscription or API key. Then give Pi a task.
See the documentation for full setup and usage instructions, or visit pi.dev for demos.
Run with Nix
nix run github:earendil-works/pi/stable
stable points at the latest release. Install it with nix profile add github:earendil-works/pi/stable and update with nix profile upgrade pi. Use a release tag such as github:earendil-works/pi/v1.0.0 to pin a version, or github:earendil-works/pi for unreleased changes on main. Nix builds Pi from source.
Supports ARM64 and x86-64 on Linux and macOS. Use nix build . or nix run . to build or run your checkout.
Nix builds are offline, so the bundled model data comes from a pi.dev model catalog revision pinned in nix/model-catalog.json. At runtime, Pi still overlays newer catalog data from pi.dev as usual. The Nix workflow replaces the pin on main when it no longer matches the checkout, for example after a provider is added or gains a new model type. To refresh it by hand:
npm run update:model-catalog-pin
Packages

For Slack/chat automation and workflows see earendil-works/pi-chat.
Permissions & Containerization
Pi does not include a built-in permission system for restricting filesystem, process, network, or credential access. By default, it runs with the permissions of the user and process that launched it.
If you need stronger boundaries, containerize or sandbox Pi. See packages/coding-agent/docs/containerization.md for three patterns:
- Gondolin extension: keep
piand provider auth on the host while routing built-in tools and!commands into a local Linux micro-VM. - Plain Docker: run the whole
piprocess in a local container for simple isolation. - OpenShell: run the whole
piprocess in a policy-controlled sandbox.
Contributing
See CONTRIBUTING.md for contribution guidelines and AGENTS.md for project-specific rules (for both humans and agents). Longer term plans for Pi can also be found in RFCs.
Development
npm install --ignore-scripts # Install all dependencies without running lifecycle scripts
npm run build # Refresh model data, then build all packages
npm run build:offline # Rebuild using existing model data without network access
npm run check # Lint, format, and type check
./test.sh # Run tests (skips LLM-dependent tests without API keys)
./pi-test.sh # Run pi from sources (can be run from any directory)
Using local packages outside the monorepo
Build every public package into one coherent local artifact set:
npm run pack:packages -- --out .artifacts/pi-packages
This refreshes model data before building pi-ai. To avoid network access when
model data is already hydrated, pass --offline-model-data.
Then configure an external project to consume one package and resolve all of its Pi dependencies from the same artifact set. npm is the default:
node scripts/use-local-packages.mjs \
--manifest .artifacts/pi-packages/manifest.json \
--consumer ../my-project \
--package @earendil-works/pi-durable \
--package @earendil-works/pi-agent-core
cd ../my-project
npm install --ignore-scripts
For a pnpm project, point --consumer at the workspace root:
node scripts/use-local-packages.mjs \
--manifest .artifacts/pi-packages/manifest.json \
--consumer ../my-project \
--package @earendil-works/pi-agent-core \
--package-manager pnpm
cd ../my-project
pnpm install --ignore-scripts
Repeat --package for each direct dependency. The command updates the
consumer's package.json with content-addressed local file: references. It
writes transitive overrides to package.json for npm or pnpm-workspace.yaml
for pnpm. Keep the artifact directory available while installing or updating
the consumer. Re-run both commands after changing Pi source.
Building standalone binaries from release source
GitHub releases include a versioned source archive covered by the release's SHA256SUMS file. Extract it and run the same build script used for the official standalone binaries:
VERSION="<release-version>"
tar -xzf "pi-${VERSION}-source.tar.gz"
cd "pi-${VERSION}"
./scripts/build-binaries.sh --offline-model-data --platform linux-x64 --out "$PWD/out"
The archive includes release model data and native prebuilds. --offline-model-data uses that model data without refreshing provider catalogs. The script installs dependencies and builds the executable with its runtime assets; pass --skip-install if dependencies are already provided.
Supply-chain hardening
We treat npm dependency changes as reviewed code changes.
- Direct external dependencies are pinned to exact versions. Internal workspace packages remain version-ranged.
.npmrcsetssave-exact=trueandmin-release-age=2to avoid same-day dependency releases during npm resolution.package-lock.jsonis the dependency ground truth. Pre-commit blocks accidental lockfile commits unlessPI_ALLOW_LOCKFILE_CHANGE=1is set.npm run checkverifies pinned direct deps, native TypeScript import compatibility, and the generated coding-agent install lock.- The pi.dev installer installs from
packages/coding-agent/install-lock/, generated from the root lockfile, to pin transitive deps. The npm package does not pin transitive deps. - Local release smoke tests and npm publication use the same tarball packer; npm publishes the validated tarballs rather than repacking workspace directories.
- Local release installs, documented npm installs, and
pi update --selfuse--ignore-scriptswhere supported. - CI installs with
npm ci --ignore-scripts, and a scheduled GitHub workflow runsnpm audit --omit=devplusnpm audit signatures --omit=dev. - Install lock generation has an explicit allowlist for dependency lifecycle scripts; new lifecycle-script deps fail checks until reviewed.
Share your OSS coding agent sessions
If you use Pi or other coding agents for open source work, please share your sessions.
Public OSS session data helps improve coding agents with real-world tasks, tool use, failures, and fixes instead of toy benchmarks.
For the full explanation, see this post on X.
To publish sessions, use badlogic/pi-share-hf. Read its README.md for setup instructions. All you need is a Hugging Face account, the Hugging Face CLI, and pi-share-hf.
You can also watch this video, where I show how I publish my pi-mono sessions.
I regularly publish my own pi-mono work sessions here:
